The JV will manufacture high quality Nonwoven fabrics using Needle-punch technology for Bag house filtration, Artificial leather and a variety of other applications. The JV also has a technology alliance with Kureha of Japan.

Arvind OG has installed custom-built machines specifically designed to achieve Japanese quality standards and capable of handling various fibers such as M-Aramid, Homopolymer Acrylic, Poly-phenelyene Sulfone (PPS), Polyimide Polypropylene and Polyester. These will be manufactured at the newly installed facilities following the highest global standards of quality while leveraging the advantage of India’s cost of production.

The unit has started production with one line of needle-punching technology, with total investment of nearly Rs 50 crore and is targeting to reach turnover in excess of Rs 100 crore in 3 years. Beyond this, the company will continue to expand capacities in this as well as other technologies within the Nonwoven fabrics space, which will be an important pillar of Arvind’s technical textiles growth strategy going forward.
